A delicate italic serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and sharp, hairline terminals. The letterforms lean with a smooth, continuous slant and show a calligraphic stress, producing lively rhythm and bright counters. Serifs are minimal and blade-like, with tapered joins and pointed finishing strokes that keep the silhouette crisp. Proportions feel classic and slightly narrow in places, with a poised, airy color that relies on careful spacing rather than mass.
This style is well suited to magazine typography, fashion and beauty layouts, and brand identities that benefit from a refined italic voice. It performs especially well for headlines, decks, pull quotes, and other larger-size settings where the contrast and delicate detailing can be appreciated. It can also serve for formal stationery and invitations when set with generous leading.
The overall tone is polished and cultivated, projecting luxury and editorial sophistication. Its dramatic contrast and sweeping italics add a sense of motion and formality, reading as stylish rather than utilitarian.
The design appears intended to evoke classic high-contrast italic tradition with a modern, sharpened finish—prioritizing elegance, gesture, and typographic sparkle for editorial and branding contexts.
In text, the thin horizontals and hairlines become a defining feature, giving a sparkling texture at larger sizes. The italic structure maintains consistent slant and cadence across capitals, lowercase, and figures, creating a cohesive, display-leaning voice.
